'Voices for Peace'
Memphis,Tenn. - The day after Thanksgiving, the year's biggest shopping day,
about 30 members of Voices for Peace stood at parking lot entrances at the
biggest shopping mall in Memphis. We got a lot of support. One man saw us there
and bought us a case of bottled water. There was also hostility. We were
threatened by a Memphis police officer who didn't seem to realize that his job
is actually to protect our right to protest. Some assumed that because we
opposed the war, we supported the terrorists. Both are a threat to freedom and
the new world some of us are trying to create.
